5-alpha-Hydroxy- Laxogenin is a saponin, that is, a steroid in the sugar-free fraction of saponins. 5-alpha-Hydroxy- Laxogenin, extracted from plants similar to asparagus, is a spirochete compound similar to brassinosteroids, a phytosteroid found in small amounts in plants and foods such as pollen, seeds, and leaves . It has some of the advantages of oxandrolone (decreases sex hormone binding globulin, increases testosterone activity, increases nitrogen storage, promotes anabolism). Human studies have shown that oxandrolone can increase muscle strength and lose weight without exercising. In addition, it also has the functions of losing weight, improving insulin sensitivity, and speeding up wound healing. However, laxogenin is a natural plant extract, which avoids the possibility of side effects on the liver and positive doping tests.
